Independent UK Pushchair Reviews · Est. 2006

Helping UK parents buy the right pushchair the first time

Real pushchairs. Real families. Real life. I started this site as a dad in 2006 — now testing pushchairs with my daughter for her own young family. No paid reviews. No studio fluff.

Est. 2006 · 30+ reviews · 30+ comparisons · Real-world testing · No paid reviews

We don’t test pushchairs under studio lights. We take them where parents actually use them — pavements, shops, restaurants, car boots, country paths and family days out.

Standout pushchairs we’ve reviewed

9.5/10 — Travel & Small Boots

Stokke YOYO³

6.2kg · 52×44×18cm folded · Cabin-compatible

The benchmark for small boots. Folds small enough for most airline cabin-baggage limits. Worth every penny for parents who need compact and capable.

9/10 — All-Terrain

Out n About Nipper V6

12.25kg · One-hand fold · Adjustable handlebar

Everything the V5 was — exceptional terrain, air-filled tyres — with the fold finally sorted. Tested hands-on in Ilkley Park. Owner feedback from Middleton Woods.

8.5/10 — Premium Family

iCandy Peach 8

12.9kg · Converts to tandem double · Lullaby Trust carrycot

British fabric quality at its finest. Grows to a double if you need it. Tested alongside the Bugaboo Donkey 6 — same score, completely different pushchair.

Best Value All-Terrain

Mamas & Papas Ocarro 2

All-terrain · Carrycot included · Joie comparison winner

Outstanding all-terrain capability at a price significantly below the Bugaboo Fox 5. Better value than terrain. Our most-compared pushchair on the site.

From the real world

Our own photo — doorway width test, Wooler, August 2026

Latest field note — August 2026

Puggle City Traveller · Wooler, Northumberland

76cm pushchair. 77cm doorway. One centimetre.

That’s the kind of thing a specification sheet will never tell you. We discovered it because the pushchair nearly didn’t fit through the door. A real measurement, from a real doorway, on a real family weekend in Wooler, Northumberland.

This is what we mean by real-world testing.

The story behind MyPushchair

I started MyPushchair with my mother in 2006 because choosing a pushchair for my own children was bewildering. At its peak the site ranked number one on Google for pushchair reviews. Nearly twenty years later, I’m back — now helping my daughter choose pushchairs for her own young family. Same honesty. Better tools. More experience.
